What’s with that? Also he was a very angry man who valued dogma over actual human beings. Idea’s are just theories after all, but people deserve kindness and consideration. I’m sorry he suffered so much but I don’t think he was as smart as he thought he was.

That Seymour can level this argument is an insult to anyone who has bore witness to Hitchens’s position on Islam and Muslims.’

Let’s see; he supported: the invasions of Afghanistan, Iraq, the Muhammad cartoons, Salman Rushdie’s malicious knighthood, the Royal British Legion’s annual Poppy Appeal and wrote an article titled: ‘God-Fearing People Why are we so scared of offending Muslims?’.
What a corrupt website this is.

I’m glad that there are still unbiased left-wing publications out there. I may be an old conservative (well, a relatively young conservative really) but I respect honesty from both sides of the spectrum.
